Solaroids News

Welcome new and veteran players! Thank you for playing and competing in the :solaroidsS::solaroidsO:ːsolaroidsLːːsolaroidsAː:solaroidsR::solaroidsO::solaroidsI:ːsolaroidsDː:solaroidsS: monthly high score challenge.

Congratulations to all, but I messed up this month! I have to capture the scores before any regular players take a shot for the next month or it clears your score, and I wasn't able to get the scores in time before that happened (twice). It used to be that I had more time as you would have to beat your last months score or the score would have to age 30 days before it would clear it, but this had its own set of issues so I fixed it. I'm trying to think out how I can automate things so that the game can do the work for me.

That takes us to the November results... I think I have the ranking right below, but the actual scores are lost to me other than for Drakkett Aranthe. I think Vavilenus had something like 9 million from earlier in the month, and I think I saw SirRave with something more along the lines of 500-600k, though I'm fuzzy on that one. Plus I don't know if you got a last minute round in up until midnight on the 30th. If you know your score, let me know in the group chat and I'll fix it up. Otherwise, I'll try and make sure this can't happen again in the future. Please accept my apology for my mistake.

[h3]1st - Vavilenus[/h3]
A monumental salute to Vavilenus for clinching the coveted top spot this month with an extraordinary score just shy of your all-time best! You are quickly becoming a consistent top player and getting closer and closer to securing a position among the top 20 in the all-time board. It is always great to see your name at the forefront of the monthly leaderboards.

[h3]2nd - SirRave[/h3]
Securing the second place is new player SirRave battling it out with Drakkett Aranthe. Competing with the modern control style, SirRave has showcased their gaming prowess and earned a well-deserved spot among the top players this month. Congratulations on your remarkable performance and keep up the fantastic work in future competitions!

[h3]3rd - Drakkett Aranthe / 493,095[/h3]
Rounding out the top three this month is none other than Drakkett Aranthe with a score of 493,095. Drakkett Aranthe has once again proven their mettle in the game and secured a place among the top players this round. Long live classic controls and congrats! PS: Hi Drakkett!

Congratulations to all!

[h3]1st - Vavilenus / 8,942,965[/h3]
A bit congratulations to Vavilenus for seizing the top position this month with an impressive score of 8,942,965! I think that may be you all-time best? Keep up the fantastic work!

[h3]2nd - klrb / 1,755,955[/h3]
A new name in the leaderboards klrb takes the second spot with a score of 1,755,955. Competing under the modern control style under easy mode (has no multiplier) and earning a place in the top ranks is no small feat. Well done! Keep pushing your limits in the upcoming challenges!

[h3]3rd - Max_0wnage / 218,125[/h3]
Securing third place is another new player Max_0wnage with a score of 218,125. It's great to see new names making their mark on the leaderboard. Keep honing your skills, and I am sure you'll continue to climb the ranks!

Congratulations to all!

[h3]1st - gelberpolo / 55,322,595[/h3]
A big shout-out to gelberpolo for dominating the boards this month with a commendable score of 55,322,595! gelberpolo currently holds 11th place in the all-time boards with a top score of 106,650,545 - almost more than double this month's entry. I'm looking forward to the day you beat your all-time best and take over or surpass that 10th place position! Congratulations!

[h3]2nd - Bonguru / 13,957,565[/h3]
Securing the second place is Bonguru with a score of 13,957,565. A regular in the 13-18 million ranking and competing with the modern dual-stick control style, you just scraped by with an entry in the wee hours before I could lock the challenge. I'm going to have to officially grant a grace period or somehow automate the recording of the challenge results, as I'm usually asleep in those final hours up to and through midnight. Welcome back, and congratulations on taking 2nd, and after many months' break from competing to boot!

[h3]3rd - kimerou / 386,655[/h3]
Rounding out the top three this month is a new name for the monthly boards, and I believe the game in general. kimerou secured 3rd place with a score of 386,655. While it's a challenging journey to the top, you are showing potential as an early player under the Modern dual-stick control style. Congratulations! Keep honing your skills, and I'm sure you'll climb the ranks in no time!

Another month and another set of high scores for Solaroids. Hope everyone is enjoying the hot summer warmth in the northern hemisphere and getting lots of vacations and summer activities in. If you're down south, hopefully there's a light at the end of the tunnel and Spring is on its way soon!!



The all-time champs have deferred this month to make way for some of the rising challengers - I didn't pay them I promise!

Last month Morg556 had achieved a top score of 73M and this month takes the lead slot with their new personal best of almost 138M. Congratulations!!

Congratulations to all!

[h3]1st - Arkanoid / 1,218,505[/h3]
Kudos to Arkanoid for grabbing the top spot this month with a commendable score of 1,218,505! Your dedication and increasing skill have paid off, and it's no surprise to see you hit the top in the monthly boards.. Congratulations!

[h3]2nd - Vavilenus / 896,425[/h3]
Taking second place is Vavilenus with a score of 896,425. Your consistent performance has earned you a well-deserved spot among the top players, and I think there was a bit of a surprise push by the top-placer this month. Congrats!

[h3]3rd - >-FISH-D / 255,305[/h3]
Rounding out the top three this month is >-FISH-D with a score of 255,305. I've seen a fish in the boards before, and I think this is might be the same fish but with some >- and -D added to the fish sandwich. If this is 'the Fish', then you have a ways to go to get to your 8-digit high scores of the olden years. Welcome back?! -- Oh I get it, >- is the tail and -D is the head. ːsteamfacepalmː
